The Social Democratic Party (SDP) strongly condemns the brutal killing of its Kogi East Youths Leader, Kashim Muhammad, by officers of the Nigeria Police from the Idah divisional headquarters. The tragic incident occurred yesterday, with Mr. Muhammad shot by the police under circumstances that suggest a politically motivated act.
The SDP demands a thorough and transparent investigation into this heinous crime. We call for immediate justice for Kashim Muhammad, and we stand in solidarity with his family during this time of profound grief. We mourn the loss of a dedicated party member and a promising young leader.
This act of violence is unacceptable and undermines the principles of democracy and the rule of law. The SDP urges the authorities to bring the perpetrators to justice and to ensure that such acts of brutality are not repeated.
The DPO Idah Police Station will be held accountable to produce his men that were involved in this crime against humanity and the people of Idah Local Government deserves better policing than eliminating their young men.
